It's April 23rd. You're listening to MLB News today, AI-powered baseball coverage. I'm Cory with the story. The Atlanta Braves are sitting pretty with the best record in baseball at 17 wins and 8 losses, but they got a scare once they knight. Their star-outfielder, the 25-year-old Michael Harris II, had to leave the game against the Washington Nationals in the 7th inning. Team said it was left quiet tightness and they pulled him as a precaution. Harris has been on fire lately, slashing 526 over 571-1211 in his last six games with four homers and seven RBIs. That night he was three for four before exiting, so he's carrying this line apart. No team wants to lose a bat like that, especially when they're rolling like the Braves. Fans are holding their breath, but so far, no word on if. He'll miss time or how serious it is. If Harris needs a breather, Atlanta might eye-free agents to plug the outfield hole. Jesse Winker, a 32-year-old former All-Star, hit 253 last year with 14 homers and solid walks,

or Hunter Renfrow, 34 with 192 career bombs, though he struggled this season at 182. Outfill options are slim right now, with most guys snapped up or sidelineed. Keep an eye on how the Braves handle this. Could shake up their hot start quick.
